These days, piracy around the sea near Somalia happen a lot of time, and it is said that it is related to the circumstance in this country. Somalia has no actual government because it collapsed in 1991 when the civil war started; thus, the situation of this country is chaos. One of cases of piracy is about this article, which is that somali pirates were captured because they attacked a Spanish ship and fired toward the ship. The purpose of piracy is basically money because it is difficult for Somali to earn and lead satisfactory life. As for piracy, UN issued a report that says pirate attacks were at the lowest level because security became stricter. However, it is reported that the amount of money that Somali earned from piracy is approximately 40 million dollars. This issue is obviously an international problem, and it needs to solved with other countries' cooperation.

ReplyDeleteWell, it really need international cooperation. Firstly, the United Nation should send more troops to Somali to assure the security and provide a peaceful environment there. What's more,other countries should help the agriculture and industry in Somali in order to develop Somali's economy.
