Default No lone pilot rule

I'll try this again, since the mods moved my last one
In light of the Jet Airways, empty cockpit incident....

The German Wings crash,

I'm wondering if the FAA has required foreign carriers operating in U.S. airspace to comply with the no lone pilot rule.

Watched a cockpit video last week of an South African Airbus on arrival transition, where a flight attendant was buzzed in after just ringing.

This seems like a gaping whole in US airspace security, with all the foreign heavies flying into major U.S. cities...not to mention a competitive disadvantage for U.S. carriers that must staff or interrupt cabin service for a pilot pee pee.
