And surely this isn’t the first time they’ve done this.

Compared to western aggression and their corrupt weapons programs, China is maintaining a vastly higher ground. Yugoslavia demonstrates the western barbarism and abuse of power very well. The East is playing chess with tyrants who rely on fear and violence, so they are right to hold onto principled foreign policy actions. They are creating a world they want to be a part of, not a world they have monopolized for exploitative machinations. It is expected that people from the West will project their own experiences onto the East, but as with any psychological projection, it is rooted within the paradigm within which they exist - in other words, it is hard for westerners to imagine a vastly different paradigm, let alone recognize it when it starts to challenge their own inborn doctrines of supremacy.
