A peace treaty is the final acceptance by two or more parties who were in a state of war (armed conflict) with each other, to cease hostilities on the basis of a written agreement. In contrast to the truce, the conclusion of a peace treaty in our time is possible only between two governments recognized by international law , since otherwise the UN is called upon to resolve the conflict.
The most important components of a peace treaty are the legal settlement of issues of territorial sovereignty and political conditions, statements about the form of building future bilateral or all-round relations, the form and extent of reparations , the consequences in the military field.
