Actually the Ukrainians themselves are "paranoid" over this deal, so much so, that this happened
"The possible sale of Motor Sich -- a maker of engines for missiles, helicopters, and jets -- to the Chinese provoked a raid of its Zaporizhzhya headquarters by Ukraine's Security Service in early 2018 and the seizure of its shares."
so, even without US intervention, Ukraine sees it as a national security to sell such a vital defense company.
They are not paranoid at all. There is just a conflict about kickbacks. Motor Sich is going to be bankrupt and disappear without this sale since no one is buying their engines anymore after the close of Russian market.
