The rules for the haste spell state the following:
When the spell ends, the target can’t move or take actions until after its next turn, as a wave of lethargy sweeps over it.
--- Player's Handbook p. 250
Does this give attackers an advantage against you as you cannot move? What about making Strength/Dexterity saves during this period? I find it unclear as to what it means by 'can’t move or take actions'?

If it meant the "Stunned" condition, it would say so. The only ambiguity in my eyes is whether "actions" includes Bonus Actions. I think so.

It means exactly what it says: No movement (speed becomes 0), and no actions (action, bonus action or reaction).
The rest of the mechanics apply normally: no disadvantage, saves as needed. It doesn't say that any specific condition applies, so nothing else matters...

@Vadruk: That is according to the answer with fewer upvotes. While reactions may be a "special kind of action", there's no rule that says things that prevent actions also prevent reactions (and, in fact, everything that prevents reactions specifically says so, separately from actions). They are "special", after all.

I feel that Crawford's tweet is (intentionally?) vague, probably stating his preference for ruling over the Haste spell, but it was two years ago and it hasn't made it into the Sage Advice (updated 2019), so his ruling may not be what the developers intended - as stated in PHB (special kind of action).
