Yes. As far as I can tell, Country must be a PrintableString consisting
of a two-letter country code from ISO 3166-1 (or "XX" as permitted by
the BRs). Of course, RFC 5280 does have some wiggle-room regarding
interoperability with preexisting certificates. Going forward, however,
all DNs should use the allowed encodings.
