Finland’s prime minister said on Friday she had taken a drug test and reiterated she had never used illegal drugs, following the publication of video footage this week that showed her partying with friends.
Sanna Marin, 36, also said her ability to perform her official duties had remained unimpaired on a Saturday night in question and that she would have left the party had she been required to work.
The leaked video, which shows Marin dancing and partying with a group of friends and celebrities, has been shared widely on social media and local media, sparking criticism.
She admitted to having drunk alcohol. In addition to denying taking drugs, she said she did not witness any drug use by any attendees.
