Just a few months ago, Kozacchyna had voted to remain in the Confederation just like the rest of the republics following the approval of a new confederal constitution and proclamation of the Confederation of Soviet Socialist Republics, but it seems that Kozaki voters wanted more than simply state their wish to remain in the union.

Following the independence referendum being held, the incumbent Liberal-PNS minority government to tear itself apart leading to the collapse of the government as the Kozaki Free Communist Party deposed a motion of no confidence that easily passed. Snap elections were then held which saw the KFGP and SDO alliance secure a 2/3 majority and wiping out the center-right to hard right opposition from the rada and leaving the DSS as the official opposition in the Rada alongside PSV.

Seeing their massive electoral victory coupled with the communists holding the presidency of Kozacchyna, they immediately called a constitutional convention and began drafting a new constitution to the republic according to metzist and communist ideals. Debates about the future of Kozacchyna were headed to say the least, most disagreements came when discussing the status of Rodakha since it's not an official language even tho 38% of the population uses it as their primary language and 64% use it alongside Kozaki in their daily lives. Some argued that recognizing it as an official language would strip Kozacchyna of its founding principles while others opposed it and said that ignoring it would just cause polarization in rural regions. Ultimately it was decided to recognize the language as an official one but also expand the use of Kozaki across the republic. 

After the new constitution was drafted and the referendum being held yesterday, the Republican Electoral Commission has announced the victory of the yes vote by a net positive margin of 14% and the scheduled adoption of the new constitution by January 1st, 5729 alongside the proclamation of the People's Soviet Socialist Federative Republic of Kozacchyna, making them the 5th openly communist republic in the Confederation.

Following the victory of communists in Kozacchyna, Vrosnok's ministry for foreign and confederal affairs released a statement denouncing the "rise of communistic sloppulism across Nadiya which hurts the principles of economic freedom and liberty the Council Republic of Vrosnok stands on." The statement continues, "The Council Republic of Vrosnok will take all legal procedures to fight the rise of this threat across Nadiya as it stamps on the foundational amendments of the October Revolutionary Declaration that brought on the death of the old Trigunian dictatorship."
