Starbase 47, aka Vanguard.
Ambassador Jetanien was a male Rigellian Chelon who served as a senior Federation diplomat in the 23rd century. Known as a wise and learned statesman, he was assigned in 2265 to Starbase 47, where he supervised a staff of envoys, attaches and aides to deal with diplomatic issues within the Taurus Reach.
While he had a wry sense of humor, particularly about the unpredictability of diplomatic matters, he was also a powerful orator and tough negotiator. He has a leathery dark green hide and is especially partial to Denebian shellfish broth. (VAN novel: Harbinger)
Jetanien spent much of 2267 away from Vanguard on Nimbus III, where he was attempting to draw Klingon and Romulan delegates together for multilateral talks. His efforts to hold a conference were finally successful in September of that year when Senator D'Tran of the Romulan Star Empire joined Jetanien and Klingon Ambassador Lugok on the surface.

After the riots in Paradise City that cost the life of Senator D'tran and damage to the Federation Embassy in 2268, Jetanien officially took a leave of absence from the Federation Diplomatic Corps; however, he continued to serve as an unofficial, back-channel negotiator between the Federation and both the Klingon and Romulan Empires.
As of April 2270, Jetanien still resided on Nimbus III, according to Tim Pennington. (VAN novel: Storming Heaven)
