Only to the extent that they can enforce that here where you are or if you have assets in that country that can be the subject of a court judgment order.

It is likely not worth their cost and effort, but a foreigner can certainly sue a US citizen here in the US or in their own country if they have jurisdiction over them, like if you committed a tort while in another country,

If you would like to discuss further over a free phone consult, feel free to contact me anytime that is convenient.

Kind regards,
