«However, critics, including the Solar Energy Industries Association trade group, have said tariffs would harm US solar producers because they would raise prices on the imported cells that are assembled into panels at American factories.»
Consider the possibility that hurting domestic industry is just as much a goal as hurting imports, especially if you can do it under cover of the fog of trade war.
It cannot be discounted as a driving theory that Putin's useful idiot and disciple wants to build the US back into a petrostate, killing the solar industry entirely. (That people give him any benefit of the doubt on this troubles me. I see no evidence he wants green anything.)
