A video of Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin, 36, singing and dancing at a party went viral on social media, causing her to face criticism from opposition parties and even demand that she take a drug test. In this regard, Marin admitted that he participated in a "crazy party", but emphasized that he only engaged in "completely legal" behaviors such as singing, dancing and drinking, and never took any drugs.
