Colombia will enact a 634.9 trillion peso ($198.83 billion) budget for 2027 by decree after a procedural breakdown in Congress halted the legislative process. The move tests the administration's fiscal management as public spending pressures mount. Lawmakers failed to reconcile differing versions of the spending bill passed earlier in the week, invalidating the legislative approval.
