Political leader Andrei Andreyevich Gromyko served as ambassador from 1943 to the United States and then from 1946 to the United Nations to 1948 and later held the posts of foreign minister from 1957 to 1985 and then of chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet to 1988.
This Communist of Belarus during the Cold War responsibly made many top decisions on policy until he retired. Because of his frequent use of the veto in the Security Council in the 1940s, western pundits called him "Mister Nyet" (no) or "grim Grom."
