Donald Trump to give up his businesses to concentrat

Donald Trump has announced that he will "leave his business in total".

The President-elect will give up his interests to focus on leading the US, he said.

The billionaire businessman has received sustained criticism for holding onto his business interests even as he worked on becoming President. Doing so even threatened to make his administration in breach of the constitution from its first day, lawyers have suggested.

Mr Trump didn`t say how he would give up the businesses, though it is likely that he will hand them over to his children. He said that he would explain more at a press conference in mid-December.
