- President Barack Obama toasted Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Iceland at a star-studded state dinner on Friday. Obama and leaders of the nations traded one-liners in their speeches and toasts.
The Danish guy did what danish people do best and pushed the envelope a little further than he perhaps should have at times, got to love those guys.
It's very Danish indeed! We are quite known for our dark and somewhat at times `busting balls´ humour XD
Too bad it was ruined by his horrible accent.
Danes are funny, but a bit tacky
I bet finland was shifting uncomfortably at the sound of the words viking heritage.
Finlands svedes manye? 🤔
+qwerty qwerty "mabye"
qwerty qwerty You can edit your comments.
Finns were also vikings. Look up varangians.
shadepotatoe Oh.
Proud of my viking ancestry....love all the Nordic countries ✌️✌️✌️
it sounds like Obama had some problems with pronounciating the names lol
Olav Wiik Moland no, i bet her practiced for at least 20 minuets. Otherwise it would have been very awkward.
***** well the pronunciation sounded tense and it seemed like he had some trouble
That doesn't matter. Diplomacy does
As an Icelander I'm embarrassed for my country's representative. Not only could his English be bested by the average 15 year old, but he seems like he hasn't even rehearsed what he's reading.
Gísli Stefán I say the same about the bad TV show from norway
Well,he still speaks better English by far than the president of the US nowadays... So no Need To be embarrased.
stop moving around .. the cameraman cant keep you in frame.. thanks obama...
I think it was president Obama that said "If the Nordic countries would run the world, it woud be close to perfection."
Holy shit the Icelandic joke about volcanoes were hilarious!
Lars! Respect!
Nordic humour - awkward laughs.
President Nénestæ of Finland
Are you that excited that you can't hold the camera still???!!!
These nordic presidents can hold their own against a charming president obama. xD Well Done Nords
Norway, Sweden and Denmark has Prime Ministers. They are monarchies. They are well closely linked, the Norwegian royal family is actually a junior branch of the Royal Danish house and the Danish Queen and Swedish kings are cousins.
@@rasmusappelon2728 and king Harald is Queen Elizabeth’s second cousin
He had been practicing those names
Could have used a tripod!
Just like president Obama, I consider the Nordic people/countries as good friends, fellow global citizens (I have friends, relatives as citizens in Nordic countries) allies, very polite, simple, decent, sophisticated and very generous to humanity causes of; peace, justice, healthcare, education and environment protection.
Thanks for your kind words friend! Love from Norway.
I bet the camera man clap together while recording this :o
Shaky shaky cam.
Finns take exactly zero pride in "our common Viking heritage".
Oh fuck
Hey mabye few of us might be lucky enough to have an ancestor having beeing rapet by a viking hundrest of years ago. 😆
That's because you're not part of our common viking heritage. We do love you guys though.
Gísli Stefán
That's quite sweet of you, Scandinavia.
I did mean that the vikings used to come over here and _do their little thing_, so we see no good in honoring that
xD
+qwerty qwerty Most Finns have Scandinavian ancestry. Finland has the world's highest percentage of Blondes and Red-haired people, and both of those genes came to Finland from Scandinavia. Don't forget, Finland was a part of mainland Sweden for centuries. It's not because "vikings raped us", but because "vikings settled here".
Please Give It Up for your camera-man: Michael J Fox!!
DOOOOOD HOW DO I HOLD A CAMERA
huffalmighty he does't agree with what he is saing
Maybe he forgot or not allowed to bring a tripod, it looks like it..! Standing absolutely still for a long time with an 8 kg heavy camera on your shoulder is a challenge if not impossible....
Trump has forever stained such longstanding commitment and quality. The WH will never be the same again.
Holy fuck I miss Obama watching this! The Donald doesn't even see us as important allies! This can NEVER happen with Trump!
worst camera skills.
Kevin Lau at least he didn't film vertically
Where u drunk when i filmed it??
I'm Danish and i think it's awesome that we share all these values, with the rest of Scandinavia, USA, Iceland and Finland.
However i really wish that it wasn't Lars Løkke Rasmussen, that represented the Danes.
So did Obama I suspect XD
Same with Sweden, I dont want the potato Löfven to represent Sweden.
Would you rather it were Henrik?
Hey, Finland is part of the Scandinavia too! >:(
No Finland is not part of Scandinavia.
The term is many 100 years old (we talk back to the dark ages). A monk talked about a part of the north were the language, people an culture was very close. He called it Scandinavia, an area north, north west and west of Scania (in Sweden).
Finland is not in the same time zone, does not have the same Language and are more close to Estonia and the Baltic nations than the other 3 Scandinavian nations.
So no, Finland is not Scandinavia but only a part of the Nordics.
9.13 awkwarddd......

who shot this? a hamster?
Your dad
Scarlett Johansson of Danish... Dessent? It's times like these when I really miss Helle Thorning Schmidt.
The idea of Santa living in a workshop far to the north is an american thing actually we don't argue about that. The asnwer to the other two questions is denmark have the happiest people, despite (or because of) being a bunch of slobs, and sweden has the best hockey team, sorry Finland we love you guys but you haven't taken a single Olympic gold in hockey yet so there's no argument there.
i mean, your hockey team is kind of a joke nowadays. Sorry Sweden, but the top 3 nowadays are Finland, Canada and Russia.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IIHF_World_Ranking
Danes says that Santa lives on the North Pole or Greenland, Finns says it is Lapland, Swedes says it is The town of Mora and Norwegians says it is in Drøbak. So while there isn't a serious debate, we actually don't agree, so the joke was spot on.
Exde And yet we keep doing better than you in tournaments.
Søren Hougaard Rasmussen I have never heard the whole santa's workshop deal from any non american sources. Certainly nothing from my fellow swedes. I would say that with us the idea comes from Disney's Christmas show.
//classified top secret humint// sos mayday. But where are my Nordic kindred countries when we need intelligence and military support the most? Standard defense and intelligence contractors are over here sleeping at the wheel, and Kristine and I need classified training, space support, wittness protection, diplomatic protection, classified medical, offworld extract, body armor, mind armor, etc, and you all are nowhere to be found. Lives are on the line in this kind of work. Were the Obama years just one big photo op for some of you? Are these topics to complex to grasp? Whats going on? *End Diplomatic Cable*
Nordic new Recipe is the Lame Duck ! Roasted or Stewed ? Damen und Herren ! Wilkommen zum Abendessen Prost !
I miss Obama
I don't even want to think how Donald Trump would have handled this State Dinner :(
gah i hate our accent
Actually Obama. There is absolutly no arguments of who has the best Hockeyplayers. Sweden has, everyone know this. even the finns would agree,so there is no arguments at all. :)
Actually MrFelixify. I'm Finnish and I and everyone I know think that Finland has much better hockey players than Sweden. Even my Swedish cousins think that.
As i said. there is no argument at all. Swedes come in 3rd place after Canada and USA of total amount of NHL players. The most popular ones, captains etc is Swedes, total amount of Olympic and WC gold is faaar more for Sweden than Finland. Im not saying finland is bad. Just that Sweden is better, have more players and have more success internationaly. There is no debate. Everything else is about taste or opinion, but that is irrelivant. Besides, i was "half"joking in my first comment. But since you actually wanted to argue i can't let it go.
I think that Sweden has over the years had more succes, but Finland has better young players, after all they did win the under 20 and under 18 yr olds world championships.
You lost agains DENMARK in U21 WC last night. Denmark dude! Yes, last two years the fins have had amazing u21 teams. But this generation is so bad.
I was actually SO shocked when they lost but I hope they will get better.
Sweden has the best hockey players. Finland has terrible ones.
At least Finland made it to the final...
2011 6-1 IIHF...
The only Hockey players i know is Oilers. XP heheeee
The disrespect on how he pronaunced Niinistö...
obutfart cringe!!!!
