Holocaust survivors and the heirs of Holocaust victims filed a suit in a U.S. federal district court

Question:

Holocaust survivors and the heirs of Holocaust victims filed a suit in a U.S. federal district court against the Hungarian national railway, the Hungarian national bank, and several private Hungarian banks. The plaintiffs alleged that the defendants had participated in expropriating the property of Hungarian Jews who were victims of the Holocaust. The claims arose from events in Hungary seventy years ago. The plaintiffs, however, had not exhausted remedies available through Hungarian courts. Indeed, they had not even attempted to seek remedies in Hungarian courts, and they did not provide a legally compelling reason for their failure to do so. The defendants asked the court to dismiss the suit. Does the principle of comity support the defendants' request? Explain.
