If you are trying to block countries by geo, I would do it via local-in-policy., e.g.
config system global
set gui-local-in-policy enable

There are multiple posts in this forum related to VIP policy compromising security. I have opened cases with FortiNet both for this issue and an additional issue. I have also alerted appropriate parties. To FortiNet's credit, they are working quickly to address this. I have not yet seen an official public statement from FortiNet. Please refer to the below correspondence to see if it pertains to your situation. Thank you.
(O.P.: not sure if it matters at this point, but I don't see a "set action deny" for rule 53 in the copy you took from the CLI.)
==========
Fw: FortiGate Security "Loophole" and Severe Bug
Two issues were discovered during FortiGate firewall product tests, the first a documentation issue which FortiNet has confirmed affects FortiOS 5.0.x and 5.2.x and the second a bug which affects any FortiGate "D" series in combination with FortiOS 5.0.10 (the FIPS 140 version; it is unknown whether other combinations of FortiOS and FortiGate are affected.)
1) FortiGate Deny All rules do not deny all traffic. What is documented: "VIP rules" take precedence over "regular rules." However, until two days ago (6/15/2015) after it was recently brought to their attention this was mentioned only briefly in a technical note and not in any of their standard documentation (the FortiOS handbook, admin guide, etc.) It remains inexplicit that "VIP rules" also take precedence over "Deny All" rules.
- Here's the link to the technical note (taken from the support case): http://kb.fortinet.com/kb/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=FD33338
- Here's the link to the updated handbook, published 6/15/2015 (see page 956, "Exception to policy order (VIPs):") http://docs.fortinet.com/d/fortigate-fortios-handbook-the-complete-guide
The scenario documented in the stem support case is given below. Rules appear in the same order they would after issuing the commands "config firewall policy" and "get."
=====
config firewall policy
edit 1
set srcintf "wan1"
set srcaddr "outside_blacklist"
set dstintf "dmz"
set dstaddr "all"
set action deny
set schedule "always"
set service "ALL"
set logtraffic all
next
edit 2
set srcintf "wan1"
set srcaddr "all"
set dstintf "dmz"
set dstaddr "nat_inside"
set action accept
set schedule "always"
set service "ALL"
set logtraffic all
next
end
=====
In the above example, "outside_blacklist" is a group of outside addresses and "nat_inside" is a VIP on the firewall. As depicted, traffic will not follow the usual order of precedence. Any traffic destined for "nat_inside" will ignore the Deny All in Rule 1 but match the Accept in Rule 2. Below is the fix suggested by a FortiNet support engineer.
=====
config firewall policy
edit 1
set srcintf "wan1"
set srcaddr "outside_blacklist"
set dstintf "dmz"
set dstaddr "nat_inside"
set action deny
set schedule "always"
set service "ALL"
set logtraffic all
next
edit 2
set srcintf "wan1"
set srcaddr "all"
set dstintf "dmz"
set dstaddr "nat_inside"
set action accept
set schedule "always"
set service "ALL"
set logtraffic all
next
end
=====
Shown above, the change replaces the Deny All in Rule 1 with Deny "nat_inside." This in effect restores the order of precedence. (For an explanation, see the new section "Exception to policy order (VIPs)" in the handbook. For the alternative fix, "match-vip," see the technical note.) To summarize, FortiGate "VIP rules" are matched before "regular rules." Most significantly, "VIP rules" are matched before "Deny All" rules.
The potential for a security "loophole" as described in the above case is compounded by:
a) a reasonable (until two days ago) expectation that a Deny or Deny All policy always denies blacklisted traffic in order of precedence; and
b) typical industry practice that only denied traffic gets logged.
Given these factors, a configuration error which would allow blacklisted traffic to enter a network undetected via an Accept rule is not unlikely. [...]
2) The secondary unit in a FortiGate "D" series active/passive cluster bricks (i.e., fails closed and must be re-imaged) after the first couple FIPS self-tests under certain conditions, two of them being: when it can't contact the master; when it is given the master's configuration file. Anyone with "D" series units will not be able to maintain an active/passive cluster in FIPS-CC mode. An "emergency" code fix of FortiOS 5.0.10 is underway which will be released as 5.0.13. We have been assured by FortiNet this will not affect the FIPS 140 certification of FortiOS.

A name can contain numbers (0-9), uppercase and lowercase letters (A-Z, a-z), spaces, and the special characters - and _
Improper naming can cause problems that are hard to diagnose.tells me to not even consider using different special characters, as results seem to be unpredictable.

It is not so much about XSS but rather to rule out an unknown variable. While speculative to a certain degree, comments in this forum, i.e. here, indicate that things can get messed up quickly. Just imagine what happened if the labels/names get truncated at illegal characters, under certain conditions, when the text configuration is compiled into the running config...you never known unless you have written the configuration parser.
