Python outputs the text correctly, but does not write to the dictionary with the wrong encoding. How to fix?

Question

Python

Hello.
Python2.7 (no required libraries on P3) (site from where I get this in CP1251 encoding)
The problem is that the object received from Beautiful Soup is translated into a string and written to the dictionary, but is not displayed in the correct encoding.
Example:

go = 'www.ya.ru'
regionName = newBs.find("h1",{"class":"cart"}).text.encode('utf-8')
regionName = str(regionName[14:-8]).encode('utf-8')
regionsDict[regionName]=go

At the same time, if you display a dictionary or just the regionName value, then it will be displayed correctly. Correct output:
regionsDict => Result => Yandex
regionsDict[regionName] => Result => www.ya.ru
But if you display the Key and Value, or write to a file or database, you get the following output:
'\xd0\x9c\xd0 \xbe\xd1\x81\xd0\xba\xd0\xb2\xd0\xb0': www.ya.ru Tried a
lot, even used this:

import sys
reload(sys)
sys.setdefaultencoding('utf-8'

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Конкретно с выводом пары ключ-значение - это беда питона 2.7. Выводите руками в цикле отдельно ключ, отдельно значение.
С записью в БД - скорее всего несовпадение кодировок БД и того что у вас в питоне.

Answer 2

This is what the answer was
at the beginning of the file:

#-*- coding:utf-8 -*-
import sys
reload(sys)
import locale
sys.setdefaultencoding(locale.getpreferredencoding())

And we write the variables and all the text like this:
Maybe someone will be useful.
PS The problem is poorly solved only with Cyrillic
