On 15 June 2026, three Intergovernmental Conferences (IGCs) were held in one day; the third was for Montenegro, and the second accession conferences took place for Ukraine and Moldova.

Omissions

• A dedicated primary-source page (consilium.europa.eu) for Moldova's second accession conference on 15 June 2026 could not be located in the available search results; Moldova's participation in that day's events is supported only by secondary news reports.
• The claim refers to 'the third one for Montenegro under the Cyprus Presidency' – this is the third IGC specifically during Cyprus's rotating presidency, not the third ever (it is the 27th overall). The MEP's phrasing is accurate but could be misinterpreted without context.
