Declaration of war - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Declaration of war - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

"

Current declarations
As of 2005, a few declarations of war remain in effect, though they are usually retained for lack of a peace treaty rather than reflecting an active state of hostilities.
* North and South Korea have remained legally at war since the Korean War.
* Israel has been at war with Lebanon and Syria since the Yom Kippur War.
* Having refused to sign the 1949 Armistice Agreements, Iraq has remained in a state of war with Israel ever since.
* Armenia and Azerbaijan remain deadlocked on the issue of Nagorno-Karabakh and have yet to find a peaceful resolution.
* Russia and Japan technically never ended their state of war following World War II. The Kuril Islands dispute is the current obstacle to the signing of a peace treaty.
* The Netherlands has never signed a peace treaty with Portugal after a conflict in 1567; thus, the two are technically still at war with each other.
