Squatters often enter with permission, but don't leave.

There is a legal distinction that really matters on a daily basis. A renter who fails to pay rent isn't a squatter. A delinquent renter cannot be instantly arrested for trespass. Someone who enters without permission can be instantly arrested without much in the way of process (trespasser, robbers, drunk people etc). Someone who had previous permission can only be evicted after a lengthy process.
Where "adverse possession" aka squatter's rights exists, one much stay without the permission of the owner. A potential adverse possession can be avoided by the landowner giving permission. That stops any running clocks as the possession is no longer "adverse" to the rights of the owner.
No and no. This is the civilian world. An embassy is an outpost of a civilian government. Despite all the spycraft associated with them, they are not military outposts and government cannot conduct military operations from them. They are armed only enough to defend themselves.
He is also definitely not a squatter. He was invited in. Squatters by definition enter without permission.
