Answer 2

Answer:

B. An executive agreement.

Explanation:

An executive agreement is an agreement between two heads of government that is binding in international law. These are binding because they are negotiated and entered into under the president's authority. Executive agreements are made solely by the President and do not need approval of the Senate. Therefore, they are used in cases where the president believes that emergency conditions require a quick decision.
