 "Donald Trump's team to raise millions for Jan 20 events")
US President-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday said he will be "leaving his business" to avoid any appearance of a conflict of interest while in the White House, insisting he was not legally bound to do so.
In a series of Tweets, Trump said he would unveil his plans at a December 15 news conference in New York with his children.
He said he would "discuss the fact that I will be leaving my great business in total in order to fully focus on running the country in order to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"
"While I am not mandated to do this under the law, I feel it is visually important, as President, to in no way have a conflict of interest with my various businesses.
