Background
The United Liberty Paper Contact, at some unknown point in time, became a secret government agent and started working for United Liberty Paper. He had possibly worked with the CIA before joining United Liberty Paper, as he has a CIA certificate in his office. In GTA V, his former apprentice Karen has gone on to work for the IAA (in-game parody of the CIA), which also supports the notion that the contact was CIA/IAA affiliated.
The contact makes mention of having a past military career in the Army. It is revealed in the cutscene of the first mission for the organisation that the contact speaks Serbian, the language of Niko's homeland; he says to Niko that America is "just like the old country", to which Niko replies: "Just like it".

The United Liberty Paper Contact is first formally introduced in the mission Wrong is Right by Michelle (Real Name Karen) shortly after the mission The Snow Storm. He then starts assigning Niko missions. The firstmission he assigns to Niko is to find out as much information on a man calledOleg Minkov and deal with him. He then orders Niko to deal with a Russian terrorist organisation leader. He then sends Niko to fetch a helicopter and deliver it to Francis International Airport. Niko is then tasked with using the same helicopter he obtained to finish off a Russian Businessman. His last assignment to Niko is to destroy Russian cocaine vans. AFter completing all of these missions, the ULP contact will phone Niko and tell him that he has arranged to have Darko Brevic brought into Liberty City at Francis International Airport as a favor by U.L.
