Buona sera, sono Federico, e sono un abitante della cita di Sora, in italia. Vorrei ringraziare tutti i nostri amici della Nuova Zelanda, che nel 1944 ci hanno regalato la libertà. Sora vi onora e vi ringrazia. Un bacio grande dall'Italia. [Thanks to Mark Da Vanzo for this translation: 'Good evening. I am Federico and I live in the city of Sora, in Italy. I would like to thank all our friends in New Zealand who in 1944 gifted us our liberty. Sora honours them and thanks them. A fond embrace from Italy.']
