nyet

So, when France says Nyet (meaning No in Russian), Trump insisted on including Russia in the G-8 coalition mix to bring 'world peace.'

Bassil, however, just sees a chance to say "nyet" once more and pull another rabbit out of his hat in the shape of long-discarded proposals, to obstruct any law that doesn't give him what he wants.

With salmon from the United States getting a nyet, Chile is selling more product to the Russians, says Wink.

Ponomarev, voted "nyet'' to grabbing a piece of Ukraine.

Yet within hours a defiant Russian leader gave the President a big, fat "nyet" as he recognised the Crimea region as an "independent and sovereign country".

Yet within hours a defiant Russian leader gave the President a big, fat "nyet" as he recognised the Crimea region as an "independent and sovereign country." Putin signed the order hours after Obama and Europe slapped asset freezes and visa sanctions on 10 of Putin's flunkies and the former president of Ukraine.

The verdict from prevailing world opinion is an overwhelming 'nyet' for Russia's President Vladimir Putin.

In Berlin 2013, Obama proposed going even further, declaring that he "intended [sic] to seek negotiated cuts with Russia to move beyond Cold War nuclear postures," "reducing our deployed strategic nuclear weapons by up to one-third." Putin's advisors responded with a contemptuous "nyet" within hours of the speech, humiliating Obama in front of the whole world and, by extension, exposing him to ridicule from Republican hawks back home.

The solidly-built woman guarding the next room sprang up with such a loud "Nyet" (no) I half feared my camera would be confiscated at the airport.

And I sense some of the series' gravitas in the stories of my father about those blade-thin victories in Moscow, urged on by him and other compatriots chanting "Nyet, nyet, So-vi-et, da, da, Ca-na-da." That gravitas has turned into a fond nostalgia, as when he took the subway downtown some years ago to meet the reunited team at anniversary celebrations at the Hockey Hall of Fame.

Nothing, nada, nyet, nix - silence like at Old Trafford when the visiting team scores.
