I guess that if you took the time to read the man page at the URL I gave
you, you would have seen this:

ALTER TABLE [ ONLY ] name [ * ]
action [, ... ]
...
where action is one of:
...
DISABLE TRIGGER [ trigger_name | ALL | USER ]
ENABLE TRIGGER [ trigger_name | ALL | USER ]

So, yes, there is a way. For one table, that is.

Foreign keys are implemented as triggers. If you disable triggers, you
also disable foreign keys. It doesn't apply to primary keys, which
aren't triggers.

And, please, stop top-posting.
