Roman numerals in non-latin text

I'm referencing to a book entitled: 
&#1055;&#1072;&#1084;&#1103;&#1090;&#1085;&#1080;&#1082;&#1080; 
&#1052;&#1091;&#1079;&#1077;&#1103; 
&#1030;&#1079;&#1103;&#1097;&#1085;&#1099;&#1093;&#1098; 
&#1030;&#1089;&#1082;&#1091;&#1089;&#1089;&#1090;&#1074;&#1098; 
&#1110;&#1084;&#1077;&#1085;&#1110; 
&#1030;&#1084;&#1087;&#1077;&#1088;&#1072;&#1090;&#1086;&#1088;&#1072;&#1040;&#1083;&#1077;&#1082;&#1089;&#1072;&#1085;&#1076;&#1088;&#1072;
 III &#1074;&#1098; &#1052;&#1086;&#1089;&#1082;&#1074;&#1077;.


I see that the the roman ordinal "third" can be encoded in a couple of
different ways:

- U+0049 U+0049 U+0049
- U+0406 U+0406 U+0406 (considering that this old russian orthography)
- U+2162
- U+2160 U+2160 U+2160

What do you say about this, and about roman numerals in non-latin text
in general? Is the U+2160 - U+217F of any use after all?
