UN Buffer Zone in Cyprus
The UN Buffer Zone in Cyprus is a 300 km (187 mile) separation barrier along the 1974 Green Line (or ceasefire line) de facto dividing the Republic of Cyprus into North and South regions. The North part of the Republic of Cyprus is de facto not under its effective control; the government administrating this area, which is recognised only by Turkey, calls itself the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.
