href="/wiki/International_relations" title="International relations">international relations</a>, a <b>frozen conflict</b> is a situation in which <a href="/wiki/War" title="War">active armed conflict</a> has been brought to an end, but no <a href="/wiki/Peace_treaty" title="Peace treaty">peace treaty</a> or other political framework resolves the conflict to the satisfaction of the combatants. Therefore, legally the conflict can start again at any moment, creating an environment of insecurity and instability. </p><p>The term has been commonly used for <a href="/wiki/List_of_conflicts_in_territory_of_the_former_Soviet_Union" title="List of conflicts in territory of the former Soviet Union">post-Soviet conflicts</a>, but it has also often been applied to other extended and unresolved <a href="/wiki/Territorial_dispute" title="Territorial dispute">territorial disputes</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-tisdall_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-tisdall-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-isn_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-isn-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-economist_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-economist-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The <i><a href="/wiki/De_facto" title="De facto">de facto</a></i> situation that emerges may or may not match the official position asserted by either party to the conflict. For example, in the <a href="/wiki/Division_of_Korea" title="Division of Korea">Division of Korea</a>, both <a href="/wiki/North_Korea" title="North Korea">North Korea</a> and <a href="/wiki/South_Korea" title="South Korea">South Korea</a> officially assert claims to the <a href="/wiki/Korea" title="Korea">entire peninsula</a>; however, there exists a well-defined border between the two countries' areas of control. </p><p>Frozen conflicts sometimes result in <a href="/wiki/List_of_states_with_limited_recognition" title="List of states with limited recognition">partially recognized states</a>. For example, the <a href="/wiki/South_Ossetia" title="South Ossetia">Republic of South Ossetia</a>, a product of the frozen <a href="/wiki/Georgian%E2%80%93Ossetian_conflict" title="Georgian–Ossetian

eight other states, including five UN member states; the other three of these entities are partially-recognized states themselves. </p><p>Since aggressors are not defeated, frozen conflicts can be seen as <a href="/wiki/Appeasement" title="Appeasement">appeasement</a> and rewarding <a href="/wiki/Crime_of_aggression" title="Crime of aggression">aggression</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-4"
