@papush Yes, it could definitely work. Everyone raises import tariffs to protect internal markets against cheap external competition, the EU does it quite a bit

@papush tariffs when used specifically and with reason can be good inside the own economy to prevent disruption. But blanket things like trump is just plain bad.

The EU has tariffs on chinese EVs if I am not mistaken, to combat them being heavily subsidized by the chinese state and protect the holy cow that is the automobile sector. Though tbh they made their bed themselves by sleeping in terms of innovations.
