After a leaked video of the leader partying at a nightclub sparked backlash among Finns, Sanna Marin has tested negative for drugs.
Marin said she took a test to clear up any doubts about her drug use after a video of her dancing at a popular nightclub was published.
Marin said she was not aware of any drug use during her night out and she only consumed a small amount of cocaine.
Marin has faced backlash from critics who said a prime minister shouldn't go to nightclubs and should instead focus on the cost of living crisis and other national issues, while others have defended her and said she is being unfairly targeted because she is a woman.
The incident led to a social media trend in which Finns posted clips of themselves dancing and partying with friends online.
The leader of the left-of-center Social Democrat Party, Marin, became the youngest prime minister in the history of the country when she was elected in 2019. She was criticized for her love of nightlife before. She apologized for going clubbing after she came into contact with a positive case. Marin is younger than her predecessors and has been photographed at music festivals and other events. I hope that it will be acceptable for people in that position in the future.
saidWomen are dancing in solidarity with their leader.
The video of the prime minister partying has sparked outrage.
