That’s a good thing imo. We do this so we can build up an industry for these things at home. That’s an important long term goal, too.
If the last years have shown us anything it’s that being solely dependent on another state for certain critical stuff is a bad idea.

Unfortunately, most countries haven’t really done much to invest into the production of solar cells in their home country in the last twenty years (Germany is a noteworthy exception), so why would they start now?
Realistically, imposing tariffs on chinese PV cells will only slow the energy transition, instead of building up domestic production.
