The video showed Marin laughing, talking and swinging her hips. A few hours later, a second video circulated of the Prime Minister, who is married and mother of a young child, dancing in the arms of a man instead of her husband.
“We went to the sauna together, swam, and spent time together.”

It is perfect for Marin’s image of “working hard and playing hard”.

NoisyBy using party — a word Marin herself used to describe her dance — the prime minister became known for it.
A video posted online somehow made its way to the Finnish press, showing Marin squirming and poking his hips toward the camera. Malin has revealed that he’s attended parties in recent weeks, though he wouldn’t reveal the exact location or time. “I hope that in 2022 it will be acceptable for even decision makers to dance, sing and go to parties.”
Marin told reporters“I didn’t want any images going viral, but it’s up to voters what they think about it.”
The controversy has led some critics to question whether the exuberant display was befitting behavior for a government chief. ” was what it was. variety. Finns have debated what would have happened if a national emergency had occurred while the prime minister was not known.
Marin addressed the issue in a statement to the press last week, saying she was always “full capacity” during the party. I danced and sang.”

And, much like the controversy surrounding her racy photos circulating a few years ago, women rushed to show their support for Marin online, posting:

We don’t all post dance videos, but Finns seem to agree that ‘stand with sanna’. Most of us aren’t bothered by the commotion, but rather amused.
In short, at least so far, many Finns are in favor of her. Initially, many thought her time as prime minister would be short-lived. They somewhat dismissively believed that this young woman would not be able to sustain herself in the rough and tumbled world of politics. hair men. She proved the critics wrong.
Yes, she is young compared to the men who held the post before her. But she’s also a capable and serious person (except perhaps her private parties with cell phone video cameras).
In fact, far from criticizing her dancing, some people here call her
Role model for work-life balanceShe showed us that politicians can enjoy life’s ordinary pleasures. And if they can do it, so can the rest of us.
The questions posed about her preparedness for potential work emergencies are legitimate. You can’t plan a crisis: She really is always in a position to deal with an emergency if it happens during a party. Did you
Another thing to note is that Marin’s images weren’t secretly taken. She posed for them and later said the video was for private use only. . she had

That’s where I personally find the biggest reason to blame her. That degree of naivety worries any politician. As a government official performing a provocative dance for the camera, and if those images are shared by her nearly 100 online accounts of her (as was the case in the video in which Marin appeared), the photo will publish.
She continues to receive public support, but it’s unclear if it will have a long-term impact on Marin’s career. 1

However, 39% of her respondents said the video did not match the image of how the Prime Minister performs his duties.
Marin’s lack of judgment and innocence have led us to this ridiculous contradiction. But I bet she would rather deal with government problems. Instead, she publicly announces her drug test results, explaining to the whole world the complexities of her social life.
