Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a disbeliever kills a Muslim, is it obligatory to kill him, or can the family of the victim waive their right?

This is up to the awliya (close friends of Allah) of the victim; they may waive their right, and they may demand retaliation in kind. Yes.
