The default font doesn't support cyrillic letters. You need to pop in a font that has support for this in place of the default one. Have a search on trac - there may be a couple of fonts attached to some tickets that will do the trick.

In that case they'll display just fine.
What isn't displaying? Give examples using the Confluence skin (and Russian language obviously!)

Thanks it works just fine in confluence, but in aeon it still sucks, however i had deleted aeon's fonts folder so it uses default dharma font and it WORKS, but it looks ugly... Native aeons look better. Maybe, there is a way to transform them? And the picture above is font from aeon folder which shows cyrillic letters too, so i can't understand why it doesn't work?

Aeon uses a lot of fonts and I think you'll find a lot wont work for foreign languages.

I got it for Aeon!
You'll need aeon_main_cy from skin's fonts directory. I did the following for Aeon Legacy Dark
1. Empty /xbmc/media/fonts
2. Copy aeon_main_cy from ./addons/skin.legacydark/fonts to ./media/fonts and rename it to Arial.ttf
3. Delete ./addons/skin.legacydark/fonts
