NEW YORK (AP) - Turkey could risk expanding regional tensions with a «robust» move of troops into northern Iraq against Kurdish rebels, U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Friday.

Turkish incursions across the rugged frontier against the separatist Kurdistan Workers' Party, also known as PKK, which launches raids into southeast Turkey from hideouts in Iraq."
