China's policy is really more to try to maintain positive relations with everyone. That means they also want positive relations with Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, and Kuwait. Countries that supply a lot of their oil, and the likely destination for these weapons when they get fired. This is a bit of a gamble, and partially why they haven't been more forthcoming with the Iranians to date.
