Nothing much. Being based in Western Europe and being run primarily by English speakers meant very few Russian leaks would get sent to Wikileaks.

How did this become the narrative? Wikileaks was started by the Russian secret service, so of course they wouldn't leak their own stuff. Assange was a useful idiot to them.

Same as for any other country. Dirty laundry of all sorts: tales of corruption, collusion, etc.
What makes it different is that Russia is expected to be like that. Not the US.
