'Fait accompli' is a French expression.

It means: "It has been successfully accomplished. It is done and finished. It is a final, unalterable and irreversible deed."

Example sentence:

* The board of directors did not discuss the retiring director's pension arrangements with the government because they believed that it was a fait accompli, a contractual obligation and not open to revision or review by external bodies.
