"Qualified divestiture" means "no longer being controlled by a foreign adversary."

Minority or even majority ownership change isn’t enough as long as the CCP still has control.

ByteDance has been rather vocal that they aren't interested in divesting like that. He could be, there is no evidence he will be, and it's not something he can cause to happen.
