How do you say in common Russian: "I don't negotatiate!" /"I am not negotating" or "I am not discussing it" or "Out of discussion".
For example you are in a professional meeting and your professional partner wants to change a term of the agreement but you are not willing even to discuss about the issue.
I found the words:
1. вести переговоры
2. обсуждать
3. дискутировать
4. потолковать
but I don't think that they pass the meaning of what I want to say.

I don't fully understand what meaning you assume by "I don't negotatiate!"Quote:

1. вести переговоры (с кем-либо о чём-либо) - to conduct negotiations (with somebody about something), this one is used for official negotiations between countries, governments, or between companies.
2. обсуждать (что-либо с кем-либо) - to discuss something with somebody - a commonly used verb, usually implies a peaceful calm discussion
3. дискутировать (о чём-либо) - to discuss, to debate something - it usually implies there is a variety of opinions on some subject
4. потолковать (о чём-либо) - to have a talk about something - this verb belongs to the colloquial style, and I think it is more common among the older generation
I verified it with a native client today. The proper expression is: Это не обсуждается.
Thank you.
