Answer:

The Provisional Government felt it had to continue the war. ... The Government was afraid of the demands that the Germans might make if Russia asked for peace. Some such as Alexander Kerensky (Prime Minister July to October 1917) believed that a victorious war would unite the people behind the Government.
