  Recent CMS results on diffraction are presented. These include the
measurements of the soft diffractive cross sections, of the forward rapidity
gap cross section, of the diffractive dijet cross section, the measurement of a
large rapidity gap in W and Z boson events and the measurement of the
pseudorapidity distribution of charged particles in a single diffractive
enhanced sample. This last measurement is the first common result of the CMS
and TOTEM collaborations. Some prospects of common CMS-TOTEM data taking are
also discussed.
