Janus continues his effort to regain Famagusta from the Genoese, who also control Kyrenia.

In 1403, the Governor of Genoa, de Mengre, negotiates with Janus' representative George Billi and the talks end with an agreement.

The conflicts end but the two cities remain under Genoese hands.

Shortly afterward, Janus again attempts to take over Famagusta, forcing the Cypriot people to pay special taxes to assemble an army and build siege machinery, using these to invest Famagusta.
