Explanation

Option D best captures the Realist view: the state is the dominant actor in international relations, distinguished by its sovereignty, and it prioritizes its survival amid a threatening global landscape. Options A and B each highlight parts of this perspective, but only D combines both key aspects. Option C incorrectly attributes moral behavior to the state, which Realism does not emphasize.
