I'd write this as follows. Perhaps 
you might like to test it. 

gen long id = _n 
egen series = group(country_codeifs)
su series, meanonly 

forval x = 1/`=r(max)' {
	su id if series == `x', meanonly 
	local c = trim(country_name[`=r(min)']) 
      noi di " `c' "
	twoway (line exp_lblended mktdate if series == `x') , title(" `c' ")
}
