Setting aside religious leader aspects this seems to be an analogy worth examining. Similarly, with reference to Taiwan, what would the USA's reaction be to Great Britain's allowing weapons to built on British soil and transferred to the CSA? See the Alabama Case. Back when the USA gave lip service to the laws of nations. What would Lincoln’s reaction have been to a British prime minister meeting with Jefferson Davis?

The West and China often has different slants on issues, and it's impossible to be impartial to the different opinions. At least world tensions have cooled to relative pacifism since the Cold War Era. Previous confrontations between Obama and China seems to show Obama as cooperative BUT weak, and China very strong due to its financial position (creditor to the US).
