Abruzzo (-itaˈbruttsopron) is a region in Italy, its western border lying less than 50 mi (80.5 km) due east of Rome. Abruzzo borders the region of Marche to the north, Lazio to the west and south-west, Molise to the south-east, and the Adriatic Sea to the east. Although it is geographically more of a central than southern region, ISTAT (the Italian statistical authority) considers it part of Southern Italy, a vestige of Abruzzo's historic association with the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.

A un certo punto si ferma a parlare a un gruppo di militari (apparentemente elicotteristi della Guardia di Finanza). Parte la solita barzelletta sulle donne e su Rosi Bindi. Con un finale-bestemmia. Segue la raccomandazione del premier: "Nessuno voi mi tradisca...eh". Ma uno dei presenti aveva una videocamerina
