Extraterritorial crossroad

In a country that is split into two or more non-adjacent parts, with another country in between, an extraterritorial crossroad is a strip of land that formally belongs to neither country, or with other special arrangements. Often these strips of land are to be formally administered by the United Nations.

Examples of exraterritorial crossroads include:

Extra-territorial crossroads can be compared to buffer zones[?] such as the one in Cyprus. Buffer zones are legally similar, but the purpose is to separate two countries, rather than to facilitate movement.
