Names of national organizations for non-English speaking countries
Until we are prepared to have the vernacular names for most countries that are not English-only, let's not look like patchwork with only a few non-English names. The structure will also have to deal with countries, such as Canada, which are officially bilingual.
Since I don't read Spanish, I can't go to the Mexican sites to get the correct name, although I suppose the Embassy can be called next week. I may not have time to do it until Thursday. My source for "Mexican Defense Secretariat" is:
