Analyze:
The title of the article published on Facebook by the page "Specialja" is false and does not match the content.
This text falls into the "Clickbait" category, as it purports to present something that was not, in fact, said by former Ukrainian Deputy Foreign Minister Vasyl Bodnar.
Reasoning:
“Clickbait” are those texts whose title has no basis in the content of the following text. Such texts and articles aim to attract the attention of the reader or even the consumer with a sensational title by promising content that does not actually exist and are created mainly out of financial interest, that is, due to increased readability. So, this type of text is only intended to click, which can be converted into a profit for the content producer.
