Two independent government records, one from the Mexican government and one from Montenegro's government, confirm the Open Government Partnership Global Summit was held in Mexico City on October 27-29, 2015.

What we found

Supports. A Mexican government publication states the Open Government Partnership Global Summit took place from October 27 to 29, 2015, in Mexico City.[1]

Supports. Montenegro's government press release dated October 29, 2015 reports that the OGP Global Summit was held in Mexico City from 27-29 October and that Montenegrin officials attended.[2]

Supports. The OGP's own event page is titled as the Global Summit Mexico 2015 and describes the Mexico City summit, though it is written in forward-looking language.[3]

Context. The claim matches the post's wording closely enough to be graded directly; the post's reference to 2011 is not part of the extracted claim and no source addresses it.
