It would be particularly nonsensical to install a government "voted for by the people" and then not recognize it with normalized diplomatic relations. That part has nothing to do with the push or desire for withdrawal.
In general, embassies aren't really occupations of foreign soil. In specific, this one will have to be able to function as a self-contained safe zone for the forseeable future. It would be quite embarrassing to have to abandon it if conditions in the city were to deteriorate.
