Petur Asano, a Faroese politician from Skúvoy, has taken his campaign to a balcony after being denied access to traditional venues, Faroese broadcaster Kringvarp Føroya reports.

Asano, known for his slogan “The view? Gone! Balconies? Gone!”, was photographed addressing voters from a balcony after his campaign faced restrictions. The image, captured by Uni L. Hansen, shows Asano speaking to a crowd from the elevated platform.

No further details were provided about the reasons behind the venue restrictions or the specific election Asano is contesting.
