According to Haiker news reports, U.S. President Trump arrived in Tokyo on the evening of 27th, opening the first visit to Japan for the second term.

On the same day, Monica Crowley, Director of Protocol at the U.S. State Department, posted a video on social platforms showing Tokyo's night view taken by a Black Hawk helicopter.

According to China News Network, citing the Japan Times, Japan is on a high security alert, and as many as 18000 police officers have been dispatched to ensure the safety of central Tokyo in response to US President Trump's visit to Japan starting on the 27th.

Japanese police have stepped up security, especially against snipers trying to shoot from high-rise buildings, deploying police on rooftops near the venue and sealing off external stairs. Bomb-sniffing dogs are also conducting searches in areas the U.S. president is expected to visit, and teams specializing in explosive ordnance disposal, chemical protection and anti-drone drones are also on standby.

Japanese police have also stepped up vehicle checkpoints and stop and questioning procedures to prevent close contact with dignitaries, while stepping up online surveillance for suspicious social media posts that may suggest imminent attacks.

According to a report by China News Network on the 22nd, Reuters quoted people familiar with the matter as saying that after Japan's new Prime Minister Saharami Takashi took office, his government is finalizing a procurement plan to be submitted during a meeting with U.S. President Trump next week.

According to the report, the plan includes purchasing American pickup trucks, soybeans and natural gas to show goodwill to the Trump administration. According to sources, sanae takaichi will not commit to any new defense spending targets during this meeting.

Trump plans to visit Japan at the end of October, which will be the first major summit meeting Takashi Saami faces since he became prime minister. How to deal with issues such as Trump and the tariff policy behind him will be the first test of his political ability and diplomatic skills. Analysts believe that if this meeting is successful, it will help consolidate its initial ruling foundation and also win US support for promoting regional security policies in the future. Regarding procurement plans and investment matters, a Japanese government spokesman responded that "it is too early to comment." The White House had no comment.
