Explanation
Answer: C - The definition that best describes the major concept of bilateral agreements is that these agreements are between two nations, with the purpose of creating joint policies. Bilateralism refers to agreements and political and cultural relations between two sovereign states for the purpose of creating joint policies. Most international diplomacy is done bilaterally. Examples of this include treaties between two countries, exchanges of ambassadors, and state visits. The alternatives to bilateral relations are multilateral relations (which involve many states), and unilateralism (when one state acts on its own).
