I see a lot of foreign security certificates stored for FireFox. What are these and can I delete them? Some are from Taiwan, China, Turkey and Spanish countries.

That are built-in root certificates that are used to trust websites that you access via a secure (https) connection.

You can't remove a built-in root certificate. You can edit the trust bits of built-in root certificates and uncheck all trust bits to prevent Firefox from using the certificate as a root certificate if you really want to, but that isn't recommended.
