There will be 'very large wall' between Trump Org and US government, Eric Trump says

The Trump Organization, Donald Trump's family business, will have a "very large wall" separating its business activity from the U.S. government, the president-elect's son, Eric Trump, said in an interview with Reuters in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday, Report informs.

The bulk of the Trump Organization's business is in the United States, although it has significant interests overseas, including in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

During his first term, Donald Trump retained ownership of the Trump Organization but placed control of the sprawling business empire in the hands of his sons Eric and Donald Jr.

"There's going to be, obviously, a very large wall between anything having to do with our company and anything to do with government," Eric Trump told Reuters at a Bitcoin conference.

"I take those obligations very seriously. I navigated it the first time, I'll do so the second time and, you know, I'll be ethically very smart, very responsible, as we did," he said.

Eric Trump said the Trump Organization would continue to grow over the next four years when Donald Trump is in office, but that it was unlikely to do business deals directly with governments, adding: "I think that probably is a conflict."

He said the "best legal teams in the world" would sign off on the company's deals to avoid conflicts of interest.

"There's a way to do both, and there's a way to do them responsibly. And obviously, I'm committed to doing that."
