		</div><p>Donald Trump has confirmed he will leave a key trade pact as he defended his worldwide business interests.</p>
<p>The US president-elect released a short video about his plans for his administration, which included the intention to quit the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP).</p>
<p><i>&#8220;I am going to issue a notification of intent to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a potential disaster for our country,&#8221;</i> Mr Trump said.</p>
<p><i>&#8220;Instead, we will negotiate fair, bilateral trade deals that bring jobs and industry back onto American shores.&#8221;</i></p>
<p>Mr Trump said in the video he is assembling a Cabinet made up of <i>&#8220;patriots&#8221;</i> and that his agenda <i>&#8220;will be based on a simple core principle &#8211; putting America first&#8221;.</i></p>
<p>He repeated a number of his promises for the first 100 days of his administration, including vows to negotiate new trade deals, remove regulations on businesses and establish a five-year ban on executive officials becoming lobbyists.</p>
<p>Notably missing from his promises is his pledge to repeal the Affordable Care Act and his vow to build a southern border wall with Mexico.</p>
<p>The president-elect later appeared to deny that he is using the powers of his future office to benefit his businesses worldwide. He tweeted: <i>&#8220;Prior to the election it was well known that I have interests in properties all over the world.Only the crooked media makes this a big deal!&#8221;</i></p>

<p>Mr Trump has said repeatedly that he will leave his company to his children and have no interest in it &#8211; but three of his adult children are also playing key roles in his transition.</p>
<p>Japan&#8217;s prime minister said the TPP trade deal would be <i>&#8220;meaningless&#8221;</i> without US participation.</p>
<p>Shinzo Abe was speaking after attending a weekend meeting of Asia-Pacific leaders in Peru at which some said they might try to modify the 12-nation TPP pact to make it more appealing to Mr Trump or seek to implement it without the US.</p>
<p>But Mr Abe discounted the idea of going ahead without the Americans being a part of the deal.</p>
<p><i>&#8220;TPP is meaningless without the United States,&#8221;</i> he said during an official visit to Argentina.</p>
<p>He also said the pact could not be renegotiated: <i>&#8220;This would disturb the fundamental balance of benefits.&#8221;</i></p>
<p>As Japan&#8217;s most powerful leader in a decade, Mr Abe had invested political capital in overcoming strong domestic opposition to the TPP.</p>
<p>Mr Abe and the other 20 leaders of the Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation group closed their annual summit on Sunday with a call to resist the protectionist sentiment highlighted by Mr Trump&#8217;s victory and Britain&#8217;s vote to leave the European Union.</p>
