[quote]I would like to know if a right to secede from the Union is explicitly stated in this Constitution.

The US Constitution did not have this, and the consequences were not pretty.[/quote]

I'm curous about that as well. Blood may spill if this is a "grey" area. Can you imagine the EU telling The United Kingdom that it CAN'T leave if it wanted to?

Yes it does. It says that it will take a unaminous vote of all members to allow a country to secede.

Good point. Nonetheless, the ESSR, as presently ''constituted'' (sic), has in fact no exit mechanism or procedure for the member nations.
