Greg Moriarty, who served as a senior negotiator with the Australian-led Peace Monitoring Group at the time, was noted by former colleagues for his ability to operate effectively across both formal and informal communication channels. He engaged with senior defense officials in formal settings and interacted with junior officers informally, reportedly prioritizing listening.
