Answer 1

The answer would be congress is frequently called upon to approve financing of foreign policies. The U.S. Constitution packages out foreign relations powers to mutually the executive and legislative branches. It bequests some powers, like knowledge of the military, wholly to the president and others, like the rule of foreign trade, to Congress, while still others it divisions between the two or just does not allocate.
