New Zealand: On Wednesday, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and Finland’s Prime Minister Sanna Marin completed their first in-person bilateral assembly in Auckland. While their assembly had some highlights, a query from a journalist throughout a press convention raised eyebrows for the incorrect causes.
“A lot of people will be wondering, are you two meeting just because you’re similar in age and have got a lot of common stuff there – when you got into politics and stuff – or can Kiwis actually expect to see more deals between our two countries down the line?” the reporter requested throughout the joint press convention.
This query, requested to Ardern, 42, shocked her. The prime minister of New Zealand responded appropriately to the journalist. “My first question is whether anyone ever questioned Barack Obama or (former New Zealand Prime Minister) John Key if they met because they are the same age?” She shot again.
“We have of course a high percentage of men in politics, it’s reality, and because two women meet it’s not just a matter of their gender,” she defined.
Marin, 37, responded to Ardern’s comment, saying, “We’re meeting because we’re prime ministers.”

Netizens appreciated the best way the prime ministers dealt with the query.
A person feedback, “Beautifully articulated response from both women and done with a smile on their face! Wow, what politics could be with decent, thoughtful and intelligent people in place.”
“What an embarrassment that reporter is. Also being from the UK, what a breath of fresh air to see PMs who know what they are talking about, are articulate (even in a second language) and answer the question asked,” one other person commented.
On Wednesday, Jacinda Ardern, New Zealand’s Prime Minister since 2017, hosted Sanna Marin, Finland’s Prime Minister since 2019.
