    PRESIDENT Donald Trump was set to sign executive orders on Monday to withdraw the US from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal and renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement (Nafta), according to an official familiar with the plans.

    Mr Trump's trade-focused executive orders, part of a series of actions planned for Monday, fulfill a campaign promise to rewrite America's trade policy during his first days as president.
