[quote=Anonymous]Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Secretary of the Russian Security Council, has said that nuclear weapons are a "staple" for Russia ["spiritual staples" – a phrase that became popular after Putin used it in 2012, meaning spiritual unity and values of Russian society. From then on, it was used quite often by Russian officials – ed.].
"For Russia's existence as the world's largest state, nuclear weapons are of inescapable importance...  But nevertheless, we understand that in today's world, nuclear weapons for our country are the very ‘staple’ that holds the state together."

I think they meant "connection", "binding" or "cement"?
Это духовная скрепа, соединяющая людей.  Ex. It is a spiritual cement that unites people.

The point is that any country who's leaders make dangerous threats like this are a menace to world peace and stability.

But this is also why Russia is a dying, failing State.  It's not a matter of 'if' anymore; it's a matter of 'when' and how bloody it will be.

Remember Libya - the 'number 1 terrorist state'?  Hear much about it anymore?  Hear a lot about conflicts there?  It's quieted down a lot, hasn't it?  I wonder why?

Things can change - it's a matter of what Russian sheep continue to follow the wolves to slaughter.[/quote]
