Helsinki, Finland’s Prime Minister Sanna Marin, 36, who is facing heavy criticism after a party video was leaked, on Wednesday strongly defended her work record and her right to a private life. At an event of his Social Democratic Party (SDP) in Lahti, north of Helsinki, PM Marin tried to hold back tears, saying, ‘I am human. And I too sometimes crave happiness, light and fun amidst these dark clouds. This is personal, this is happiness, and this is life.’ Despite this, he said, ‘I did not miss a single day of work.’
According to a report by the news agency AFP, Finland’s PM Sanna Marin also said that ‘the last week has been very difficult. I am sure people will see what we do at work, not what we do in our spare time.’ Significantly, a video was leaked last week. Which made headlines around the world. In this, PM Sana Marin was seen dancing and partying with her friends and celebrities.
In the video, he criticized Sanna Marin for her unfair treatment of the Prime Minister. While others have defended their right to enjoy a private event with friends. Some linked the things heard in the video to drugs. There was some heavy debate on social media and Prime Minister Marin denied taking drugs. To clear any doubts, he took a drug test and later the result came negative.

Despite this, Marin had to apologize on Tuesday for some photographs taken at her home in July. In this, two women were making objectionable remarks. These pictures were first shared by a former Miss Finland contestant on the Tiktok account. Which is also visible in the photo. However, Marin’s party supported him during the video controversy. While local media say the new photos released this week are fueling criticism within the Social Democrats. After talking to SDP MPs, a newspaper on Tuesday wrote that although Sana Marin is quite popular, the repeated scams are causing frustration within the party.
