[One of the principal ways of termination of the status of war is] by armistice agreement, where the agreement although primarily intended to bring about a cessation of hostilities, operates subsequently as a result of its practical application by the parties de facto to terminate the status of war. This, it is believed, is largely a question of construction of the particular armistice agreement concerned.
