Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin has once again commented on her private life.

The occasion is a mobile phone clip that is circulating on Twitter.

It shows the 36-year-old dancing with singer Olavi Uusivirta in a Helsinki club.

The two keep touching each other's shoulders and hips.

The musician leans forward for a brief moment.

Some want to see a kiss on the neck in it.

That is not clearly visible.

During a press conference, Marin said she didn't remember being kissed on the neck.

She thinks Uusivirta wanted to tell her something.

“I think these things are part of my private life.

And I will not comment on them in detail.«

She doesn't think there's anything inappropriate in the video.

Marin has been married since 2020.

The singer wrote on Instagram.

"We are friends and nothing inappropriate happened between us."

video leaked

In the middle of the week, a tabloid published a video showing Marin at a party with friends.

It had triggered a public debate about the Prime Minister's appearance and a possible breach of her official duties.

The background is that Marin drank alcohol during the celebration, but according to the government, had no representation on the day in question.

She had just returned early from vacation for an appointment.

According to polls, Marin is the most popular politician in the country.

The unconventional nature of the social democrat still divides the country.

On the one hand are those who see her as a pioneer of a new generation of politicians.

On the other hand, there are all those who fear that the 36-year-old has not yet internalized the seriousness of her position.

These rifts could now deepen.
