nothing forewarned of
Explanation:
'forewarned (of)' is the exact translation of 'предвещало', and there is no reason why it should not be used in this case. 'indicated' can be used, but then the rest of the sentence would have to be expanded and structured correctly to convey the meaning, e.g. '..indicated that (the) sharp statements were about to be made by Yulia...'. One cannot just say '..indicated the sharp statements by Yulia...', as the time relationship is wrong. 'forewarn' means 'предвещать' and 'indicate' means 'указывать', that is all there is to it. See provided examples of translation of the whole sentence, which would depend whether 'казалось' is used to convey present thought process, or past, as in something that seemed at the time.
Example sentence(s):- It seems nothing forewarned of the sharp statements by Yulia Timoshenko.
- It seemed as if nothing had forewarned of the harsh comments by Yulia Timoshenko.
