Reuters, COPENHAGUE, 22 August - Sanna Marin, the prime minister of Finland, accepted to submit to a drug test after a video showing her celebrating a holiday with friends was published the previous week. On Monday, she announced that her services would be available.
Sanna Marin announced last Friday that this video had been distributed on social media and in the press while claiming that she had never used drugs and had not witnessed anyone else do so during this intimate evening.
Sanna Marin, who will become the youngest prime minister in history in December 2019 at the age of 34, also said that her ability to do her duties had not been affected on Saturday night and that she would have left the party if she had needed to go to work.
