In the United States, the approval of a treaty that has been negotiated by the US executive branch, either by the President or by the Secretary of State, must be approved by the US Senate. Treaties are approved by the President before they are submitted to the Senate for approval.
The President may enter the United States into treaties, but they are not effective until ratified by a two-thirds vote in the Senate. In Article II however, the Constitution is not very explicit about the termination of treaties.
