EVs, Batteries: how can Europe use tariffs on China without starting a trade war?

Tariffs will not stop Chinese companies from building factories in Europe as BYD and CATL are already doing. This can localise EV supply chains in Europe while accelerating the EV push. Similarly, Europe should increase tariffs on battery cells to at least 20% by 2027, up from the very low 1.3% today. Tariffs can be tapered to ease the
