The photo released by Finnish media shows two women kissing, lifting their tops to expose their torsos and covering their breasts with a sign that says “Finland”. Marin confirmed on Tuesday that the photo was taken at her official residence, Kesaranta, after attending a music festival that took place between July 8 and 10. “I think the image is not appropriate, I apologize for that. Such a photo should not have been taken,” Marin told reporters in Helsinki. Marin said she had “friends” at her house at the time “having a night out” and “going to the sauna”. The photo was first posted on a TikTok account by a former Miss Finland contestant and social media influencer, who appears in the photo. An article in the country’s largest newspaper, Helsingin Sanomat, on Tuesday said that Marin does not appear to be in control and that more photos and videos from her private life could end up in the public domain. Marin made headlines around the world last week when a video surfaced showing her dancing and partying with a group of friends and celebrities. Some have interpreted the comments in the video as a reference to drugs, something that has been hotly debated on social media and which Marin has vehemently denied. Marin took a drug test on Friday to “clear up suspicions.” Her urine sample was tested for the presence of various drugs. It came back negative. “A drug test taken by Prime Minister Sanna Marin on August 19, 2022 did not reveal the presence of drugs,” Marin’s office said Monday, adding that the results were signed off by a doctor. Her dancing in the video has also been criticized by some as inappropriate behavior for a prime minister, while others have defended her right to enjoy a private event with friends. So far Marin has had the support of her party, with Andy Lindmann, head of the Social Democrats’ parliamentary group, telling the media he “can see no major problem with dancing at a private event with friends”. Marin – who came to power in 2019 aged 34 – has previously come under fire for parties at her official residence. In December 2021, she came under fire after it was revealed that she stayed out dancing until the early hours of the morning despite being exposed to Covid-19.
