Question

What is a primary difference between a treaty and an executive agreement? Question 3 options: Treaties must be approved by the Senate; executive agreements do not. Executive agreements are made only within the United States. Treaties can be created without considering the Constitution. Executive agreements always transfer from one administration to the next; treaties do not.

Answer 1

"Executive agreements are made only within the United States. Treaties can be created without considering the Constitution." is False. Executive agreements are made between the heads of the States involved.

"Executive agreements always transfer from one administration to the next; treaties do not." is also False. Since the agreements are made between the heads of States, a change in the head of state might affect an agreement. Also, treaties do carry on regardless of the administration.

The correct answer is: "Treaties must be approved by the Senate; executive agreements do not."
