No doubt that if he is dead Putin would put a puppet in his place and then we have the trouble.

Why Putin would poison him? I explained it some post before. Belarussian people and army are not eager to join the war, and Lukashenko would risk open rebellion if he would follow Putin into the war, even more so since the mood already was bad after he stole the election. Killing Lukashenko would give Putin card blanche for tougher measures to subjugate Belarus by a military coup and without caring for public sentiments: supressing the latter by brute force, which Lukashenko was not willing to risk to that degree.
