The dubious portal "klikoshqip.com" has published an article claiming that recognition of Kosovo has come from a very powerful state, titled "This is the very powerful state that just recognized the state of Kosovo."
From the fact-checking carried out by hibrid.info, it was found that this article contains a fabricated title that does not correspond to the content of the text, while the news is old, published in September 2020.
The news concerns Ukrainian Deputy Foreign Minister Vasyl Bodnar, who in an exclusive interview with RTV Ora, had warned of a possible recognition of the state of Kosovo by official Kiev.

Below you can find the article covered by hibrid.info in September 2020.
The content of the article published by these dubious portals contains only a part of the interview with the Deputy Foreign Minister of Ukraine, Vasyl Bodnar, conducted on the Albanian television, RTV Ora.
However, Bodnar, it seems, never mentioned in that interview the immediate recognition of Kosovo by the state he represents. Instead, what he had mentioned was only the possibility of Kosovo being officially recognized by Kiev, adding that this procedure is still in its early stages.

Analyze:
The title of the article published on the dubious portal "klikoshqip.com" is false and does not match the content.
The same article was previously distributed by another suspicious portal, "specialja.com", which was handled by hibrid.info.
The article published on klikoshqip.com was also shared on the "Gazeta Aktive" Facebook page, which has over 90 thousand followers.
Hibrid.info, after fact-checking analysis, has assessed this article as "misinformation" and "clickbait".
Reasoning:
A “Disinformation” rating is given to media reporting that contains a “mix” of inaccurate sources or even half-truthful content. This rating will also address reports that have incorrect attributions or headlines that do not reflect the text in terms of information accuracy.
The “Clickbait” rating is given to texts whose titles have 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 intended only to click, which can be converted into a profit for the content producer.
