0 a place where trouble, especially political violence, happens regularly:
There is increasing demand for the United Nations to intervene in trouble spots throughout the world.
Later that day, the alarm raised by the village head brought several high-ranking officials to the trouble spot.
Fishing was another trouble spot.
I called it "a trouble spot", and that has turned out to be a great understatement.
We are exactly like a fire brigade, dashing from one trouble spot to another.
If many troops go to a trouble spot and disembark from a landing craft or troopship, conditions may not be improved.
Simply going to each trouble spot and hoping that one can patch the problem up there will not solve it.
In these circumstances, it is even more important that we should be able and ready to move our forces to whatever trouble spot next appears.
I think that the operation shows that we have to have mobile, well-trained forces quickly available to bring to any trouble spot.
