Now if you want to get into article 74 and it’s issue then that is certainly fair.  It’s clearly the banana in the tailpipe.  The EU did the exact same thing.  

Lucy, you are surprising me. 

The Lithuanian SSR, for example, constantly had trouble controlling its populace because they OVERWHELMINGly wanted out from under the Soviet/Russian thumb.

But their "government" was set up by the USSR backed Lithuanian Communist Party and Russian post-war immigrants.  That thin sliver of the population which then controlled the government would never choose to break a away. And if they did, the USSR would see that they were replaced with someone who didn't.

So it doesn't reallly matter what the bulk of the people of Lithuanian wanted.  The moment the USSR could not cap protest there, the Russian backed SSR was toast. Same in the other "autonomous" republics. 

Chechnya could not break away even after the government shifted to the Federation.

So it doesn't really matter what the Constitution simply said because no one could simply break away.
