Russia threatened to pull out of the ISS a few days ago claiming that the station would fall to earth without them. Then People pointed out it would be straight forward to simply replace the Russian module with an extra SpaceX Dragon capsule and use its thrusters to fill the same purpose the Russian module had been.

At least according to the text in your link, they didn't threaten to pull out. They said that the station would fall to earth if they were expelled.
