▲ Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin's party video
Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin, who was caught up in controversy over the video of 'Frenzy Party', was even tested for drugs.
According to Finnish public broadcaster YLE, Prime Minister Marin said at a press conference on the 19th local time, "I had a drug test today and the results will come out within a week." "I have never used drugs in my life."
"I didn't do anything illegal," he explained, adding that "it was just an examination to alleviate concerns."
On social media the day before, a video of Prime Minister Marin dancing and singing passionately with celebrities such as Finnish singers and broadcasters was circulating.
Especially in the video, there were reports that the Finnish word for drugs was heard, and in the end, both the opposition and the opposition demanded Prime Minister Marin's drug test, and the matter became serious.
The repercussions grew even more when it was reported that Prime Minister Marin went to a Helsinki nightclub after a party with her friends and danced past 4 in the morning.
Prime Minister Marin said he was able to perform his duties during the party and that he would have left the party if he had to work.
In December 2019, at the age of 34, Prime Minister Marin was elected as the leader of Finland's largest Social Democratic Party, making him the world's youngest active prime minister at the time.
