@nazar-pc: It is very important to care and make an effort to figure out what is going on.
Your case is about Java apps, which is a distinctive group of GUI programs.
I am not aware of functionality that XIM ('setxkbmap') would offer the feature to have working shortcuts with non-English layouts, unless it is some hack that is specific to the Java app.

For your case, I highly recommend for you to create a new bug report under "java-common",
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/java-common
with a title like "Shortcuts/hotkeys not working when non-latin layout is active",
and describe in detail the problem and add your workaround using "setxkbmap".

Then, post the URL of the report here so that those that are interested, can subscribe as well.
I'll then look to find the appropriate upstream project and link there.
