<p>He had been scheduled to leave on January 21 to attend the World Economic Forum.</p>
<p>Mr Trump says he was cancelling his trip because of Democrats’ “intransigence” on border security.</p>
<p>Mr Trump and Democrats are at an impasse over funding for Trump’s proposed wall at the southern border.</p>
<p>In a tweet on Friday, Mr Trump offered his “warmest regards and apologies” to the economic forum.</p>
<p>Earlier in the day, he told reporters that he wanted to go, but that he might not if the shutdown over funding for a US-Mexico border wall continues.</p>
<p>Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and other Cabinet members are still scheduled to attend the annual Davos event, which attracts the world’s business and political elite.</p>
