Currently, international agreements are executed by executive agreement rather than treaties at a rate of 10:1.

For example, the deal by the United States, Iran and other countries is not a Treaty.

What is it about the approval process of executive agreements might lead a US president to prefer them over treaties?

Input: Slavs
As of 1878, there were only three free Slavic states in the world: the Russian Empire, Serbia and Montenegro.
