The president of the United States is saying this is not a big deal. That feels surprising to me too, says CNN's John Defterios. This leak has been immediately compared to the WikiLeaks tranche of documents that came out between 2006 and about 2020 where Julian Assange and other people who worked at WikiLeaks were publishing millions of documents. Now, the leak we're talking about here is much smaller in scale. I think we're talking maybe hundreds of documents. But what's different about this leak is that the documents that are being leaked are papers that deal with real time, national security issues and events.
