The correct option is: U.S. Senate ratifies treaties; the president negotiates foreign treaties.

In the United States, the president has the authority to negotiate and sign treaties with foreign nations, but those treaties must be ratified by a two-thirds vote in the U.S. Senate before they can take effect.
