What is the differnece between an amstice and a treaty?

An armistice is a formal agreement between warring parties to stop fighting, typically as a precursor to negotiations, without necessarily resolving the underlying issues of the conflict. A treaty, on the other hand, is a formal and legally binding agreement that outlines the terms of peace, including the rights and responsibilities of each party after the conflict has ended. While an armistice halts hostilities, a treaty aims to establish a lasting resolution to the conflict.
