That's it right there. R Gambino had to be a made member of a group the drug dealing was outsourced to. Back then, the American bosses probably thought they could make money off the drug trade being passive investors, while not getting their hands dirty. But that was likely before Rico kicked in.

Obviously if R Gambino was a Sicilian mafia member trafficking, then his job was to be a link in the chain somewhere and he needed to be in the United States to do the supervision.
