The Korean War started in 1950. An armistice was agreed in 1953, but there has never been a peace treaty.?
'An armistice is a formal agreement of warring parties to stop fighting. It is not necessarily the end of a war, since it may constitute only a cessation of hostilities while an attempt is made to negotiate a lasting peace.'
The question is why the US is saying that the war in Afghanistan is the longest war in US history?
Sorry about that. I got a bit 'carried away'.

Yes.
Though the US has also maintained a constant state of war against Native nations and against Black people, so that'd be the longest wars technically I guess. Because the US has never kept a single treaty it has ever made with Native peoples.

That is correct. North and South Korea are, to this day, still technically at war. And as we have seen many times since 1953, particularly in the last decade, the ceasefire agreement is tenuous.

True - the peace treaty is still pending, and the (temporary) border is still heavily guarded by both sides.
