> Why not simply say “Somali piracy”
The audio is referencing geographical locations, so saying “Somali piracy” alone doesn’t provide a geographical location (since Somali piracy could take place anywhere).
So the quote would need to change to something like:
“[…] to the relative quiet of Somali piracy in Somalia’s waters”
…which is extremely clunky.
Can you suggest an acceptable version, that still does the job of referencing the geographical location?
