Washington-ALSHARQIYA   January 16: Reuters quoted two informed sources as saying that US President Donald Trump plans to leave Washington on the morning of President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration next Wednesday, instead of his original plan to leave on Tuesday.
 The sources said that Trump, who said he would not attend the inauguration ceremony, was preparing to hold a farewell ceremony at Andrews Air Force Base outside Washington, where Air Force One is based, but the sources confirmed that the plan may change, and it is not clear whether Trump will deliver a speech on Wednesday.
 An administration official said some advisers were trying to persuade Trump to host Biden at the White House before inauguration day, but indicated there was no sign of Trump's desire to do so.
