Kazakhstan's squad is set to compete in seven sports at the Games.

Welcoming the nation's largest Paralympic team in history, Tokayev promised to continue investing in Para sport.

"Each of you is already a winner," Tokayev said according to the Astana Times. 

"People are proud of you. 

"Approximately 20,000 people are involved in Para sports and 500 of them joined the national teams."

Included in the team is Asian judo champion and World Cup winner Temirzhan Daulet, who thanked the President for supporting the team.

"This year marks the 30th anniversary of the independence of Kazakhstan, I am 30 too," said Daulet.

"The dream of young people like me, who were born and raised in an independent country, is to raise the Kazakh flag. 

"The coaches did everything for our preparation. 

"We will do our best in Tokyo."

Aside from judo, Kazakhstan is set to be represented at Tokyo 2020  in swimming, powerlifting, taekwondo, athletics, shooting and canoeing.

Two-time world champion, three-time Asian champion and two-time European champion in taekwondo Nurlan Dombayev and Rio 2016 powerlifting silver medallist Raushan Koishybayeva will be the flagbearers for the Opening Ceremony.

Kazakhstan's Paralympic Training Center was opened in capital Nur-Sultan in 2018.

The nation has won two golds and two silvers at the Paralympic Games, including a gold and a silver at Rio 2016.
