Unnamed U.N. Secretary-General

Diplomatic Authoritative Influential authoritative disciplined protocol-driven alert

Leo summons the U.N. Secretary-General's authority to wrench a public denunciation from Arafat after the Palestine Freedom Front's Jerusalem suicide bombing slays two American brothers. Thrust into White House diplomacy on Erev Yom Kippur's eve, he tightens the crisis vise alongside U.S. envoy Scorza at Israel's PM office, channeling UN leverage to forestall retaliation and enforce restraint. This instrumental figure embodies multilateral pressure points, bolstering Bartlet's de-escalation amid grief's raw edge and terror's tinderbox.
