Search for his grants brings grants from US, he studied and did PhD in US and still affiliated with NYU, and the major and most valuable part of his network of academia connections is US, his private foundation in USA, etc. If he isn't in-line with the prevalent winds in US, he will be reduced to nothing, just a professor in some Uni, not a renown researcher with his own Wikipedia page, grants and conferences in US, etc.
