Ankara has long pressed Washington to act against the rebels and has threatened to carry out cross-border incursions.
Murat Karayilan, a senior PKK military commander and member of its collective leadership, said in an interview with the Kurdish news agency Firat that any attack would result in long-running resistance.
Some 37,000 people have been killed since the PKK took up arms for Kurdish self-rule in southeastern Turkey. The PKK is listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the United States, and the European Union.
