The original bibtex does not understand non-ASCII charcters.
There is an 8-bit clean fork (bibtex8).
If you use literal German umlauts in your *.bib file without problems, this
is a sign that bibtex8 is used.
What is the encoding of the bibtex file?
Do you use utf-8 for the exported LaTeX file?
(Document>Settings>Language>Encoding)
Does Cyrillic work, if you drag-and-drop it into the document (just as a
test)?
Does it work if you set the language of the relevant text part to Russian?
With
* an utf-8 encoded LaTeX file,
* the russian option to babel (or as document wide option)
* \foreignlanguage{russian}{<cyrillic text>} around all cyrillic text parts
* bitex8
* a suitable Cyrillic font
* some luck
it might work.
Alternatively, you may try to write the Cyrillic characters as LICR macros
(\cyra ... \cyrja) - this should solve utf-8 problems but you still need
correct fonts and the correct language setting (so switch the TeX font
encoding).
