Through the Secretary of state , whom he appoints, within limits, he can give out or withhold monetary aid and military aid. The president is the commander-in-chief to enforce a protest about the behavior of a foreign government. Just moving battleships into an area sends a message. He can order trade embargoes or restrict travel to and from a foreign country. With the advice and consent of the US senate he can negotiate treaties and accords. He appoints the ambassadors to foreign countries and gives them instructions on what policy to follow. He controls the CIA and can order secret operations , such as assassinations in foreign countries.
