this is a readline misconfiguration issue.

if you just type cat you should be able to input non-English chars, e.g.:

$ cat
от халепа

hence, put the lines below into /etc/inputrc file (on a regular linux system they are usually already there):

set convert-meta off
set input-meta on
set output-meta on

I did everything but the breakdown is preserved.
See what happens to the console:

The cat command really shows everything.
But the problem is that when you run the script with Russian characters, they are not shown!
