http://homepage.gallaudet.edu/David.Penna/Trtymake.htm 1. Which entities have capacity to make Treaties? All sovereign states (countries) have the ability to make international treaties. What about sub-units of countries: can the State of Virginia or the City of Baltimore or Montgomery County make a treaty with France? -- International law does not exclude the possibility of such an agreement, but the constitutions of many states forbid such agreements. The United States Constitution, for example, says: No state shall, without the consent of Congress, ... enter into any agreement or compact with another state, or with a foreign power .... (US Const. Art. I, sec. 10, para. 3).
This has been interpreted to mean that US states cannot make agreements affecting politics or security with foreign countries but they can make economic and cultural agreements.
