Contents
Early life and education
Sanna Mirella Marin was born on 16 November 1985 in Helsinki.[2][3] She also lived in Espoo and Pirkkala before moving to Tampere.[2] Her parents split up when she was very young; the family faced financial problems and Marin's father, Lauri Marin,[4] struggled with alcoholism. After her biological parents separated, Marin was brought up by her mother and her mother's female partner.[5][6][7]
Marin graduated from the Pirkkala High School in 2004 at the age of 19.[8] Marin joined the Social Democratic Youth in 2006 and was its first Vice President from 2010 to 2012.[9][2] She worked in a bakery and as a cashier while studying,[10] graduating with bachelor's and master's degrees in Administrative Science from the University of Tampere.[6][10]
Early political career
Social Democratic Party
Marin's political career was described by the BBC as "beginning at the age of 20",[5] in the years following her high school graduation and beginning her affiliation with the Social Democratic Youth.[5][9] She initially unsuccessfully ran for election to the City Council of Tampere, but was elected in the 2012 municipal elections.[5][2][11][12] She became chairperson of the City Council within months, serving from 2013 to 2017.[6] In 2017, she was re-elected to the City Council.[13] She first gained prominence after video clips of her chairing contentious meetings were shared on YouTube.[10]
Marin was elected second deputy chairperson of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in 2014.[14][6] In 2015, she was elected to the Finnish Parliament as an MP from the electoral district of Pirkanmaa.[15][16] On 6 June 2019, she became the Minister of Transport and Communications.[14][17][10]
On 23 August 2020, Marin was elected chair of the SDP, succeeding Antti Rinne.[18]
Prime Minister of Finland
In December 2019, Marin was nominated by the Social Democratic Party to succeed Antti Rinne as the Prime Minister of Finland,[19][20] but Rinne formally remained party leader until June 2020.[21][22] In a narrow vote, Marin prevailed over Antti Lindtman. A majority of the ministers in her five-party cabinet are women, numbering 12 out of 19 at the time of the cabinet's formation.[23][24] She is the third female head of government in Finland, after Anneli Jäätteenmäki and Mari Kiviniemi.[11][25][22]
Upon her confirmation by Parliament at the age of 34, she became Finland's youngest-ever prime minister, and was the youngest serving state leader until Sebastian Kurz regained the title in January 2020 [20][26][27]
During the global COVID-19 situation in 2020, Marin's cabinet invoked the state of emergency in Finland, with lockdowns and other drastic measures.[28]
On May 25, 2021, Finnish media reported that Marin and her family were buying about 300 euros per month in groceries with public funds as a part of the Prime Minister's tax-free housing benefits. The legality of the arrangement was questionable since the housing benefits don't explicitly include food provisions.[29][30] [31] In her defense, she said it was established practice with former PMs, something that also was questioned.[32]
Personal life
In January 2018, Marin and her fiancé, Markus Räikkönen, had a daughter, Emma.[37][38][39] In August 2020, Marin and Räikkönen married at the prime minister's official residence, Kesäranta.[40] Their permanent residence is in the Kaleva district of Tampere,[2] but during the COVID-19 pandemic, they have resided at Kesäranta.[38]
Marin describes herself as coming from a "rainbow family",[41] as she was raised by same-sex parents.[17][42][3] She was the first person in her family to attend university.[43] Marin is a vegetarian.[44]
