After months of attacks by Houthi rebels against several ships in those waters, Wang explained to Zindani that "the tense situation in the Red Sea" is "a consequence of the repercussions of the Gaza conflict", a war for which he called for a ceasefire.
The Chinese Foreign Minister stressed the importance of "maintaining unity and stability" in Yemen and expressed hope that "all parties involved in the Yemeni conflict adhere to a political solution and respond positively to the peace efforts of the UN and the countries of the region".
Zindani welcomed "China's unconditional support for Yemen's independence and sovereignty" and the assistance provided by Beijing "to the country's economic and social development, without political conditions".
The Yemeni minister expressed hope that China "will continue to play a significant role in reducing tensions in the Red Sea and in the reconstruction of Yemen".
Houthi attacks could have a major impact on the world economy, since the Red Sea accounts for almost 15% of world maritime trade.
China has criticized the actions of US forces against the Houthis since the insurgent group began attacking ships in the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandeb Strait months ago, which it claims are linked to or headed for Israel.
According to Beijing, the attacks launched by the US are not covered by UN Security Council resolutions or the UN Charter and are therefore contrary to international law.
Zindani is in the Chinese capital to participate in the 10th Ministerial Conference of the China-Arab States Cooperation Forum on Thursday.
The conference will be attended by Chinese President Xi Jinping, King of Bahrain Hamad Bin Isa Al Khalifa, President of Egypt Abdel Fattah El Sisi, President of Tunisia Kais Saied and President of the United Arab Emirates Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
