This paper presents our submission to Subtask 2 (multi-label classification of persuasion techniques) of the Shared Task on Detection and Classification of Persuasion Techniques in Slavic Languages at SlavNLP 2025. Our method leverages a teacher–student framework based on large language models (LLMs): a Qwen3 32B teacher model generates natural language explanations for annotated persuasion techniques, and a Qwen2.5 32B student model is fine-tuned to replicate both the teacher’s rationales and the final label predictions. We train our models on the official shared task dataset, supplemented by annotated resources from SemEval 2023 Task 3 and CLEF 2024 Task 3 covering English, Russian, and Polish to improve cross-lingual robustness. Our final system ranks 4th on BG, SI, and HR, and 5th on PL in terms of micro-F1 score among all participating teams.
