"There is still a chance for diplomacy , although it is not much, it is limited," Mr. Araghchi said of Tehran's nuclear program in an interview with Iranian state television.

In another development, on the same day, November 16, THX reported that an Iranian court ruled that the US must pay $48.86 billion in compensation to the families of Iranian citizens killed in the war against "terrorist groups" linked to Washington in Iraq and Syria.

According to Iran's semi-official Fars news agency, the verdict was issued by Judge Majid Hosseinzadeh after two hearings on a complaint filed by 700 family members of the victims against the US government .

The court identified the above terrorist groups as "the self-proclaimed Islamic State (IS) organization and the Al-Nusra Front".

According to the ruling, the US must compensate each plaintiff 10 million USD, a total of 6.98 billion USD, for material damages, and compensate each plaintiff 20 million USD, a total of 13.96 billion USD, for mental damages, Fars said.

The court also ordered Washington to pay punitive damages of $27.92 billion to prevent further harm.

According to Fars, the US can appeal within two months from the date of the verdict.

Washington has yet to respond to the Iranian court's decision.

Over the years, Tehran has sent military personnel to Iraq and Syria to help their governments fight "terrorist groups".
