The president will present the 'Trump Cup' at a tournament in Tokyo during his visit to Japan.
Traditionalists are balking at the prospect of President Donald Trump watching a sumo bout on a ringside seat rather than the traditional mode of sitting cross-legged on a cushion.
Trump will sit in a chair among the most prized seats that encircle the ring known as masu seki. Normally sitting in this area is done on flat cushions known as zabuton. Another sumo fan, Izumi Chiba, from Sapporo, told the agency: “As we say, when you are in Rome, do as the Romans do.” There are security concerns over Trump’s visit to the bout with almost an eighth of the 11,000 seats reserved for the president, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and their security teams.
