He knows very well that Punk started in the UK '76 - '77 (Pistols, Clash, London, Sham '69 etc...) and that the US developed a diluted version which was basically Rock 'n Roll (same as it ever was) with slightly more spaced out, dodgy lyrics and hair (Ramones, Television, Mink DeVille etc...)...

You've got the chronology wrong. The New York scene that spawned the Ramones, Television and others predated English punk by several years. The Ramones' first album was 1975.
